LJ-soulbonding has been deleted.
Jun. 20th, 2018 01:27 pmThe LJ soulbonding comm has been purged recently--within the past year, tops. But since I've had to trawl through it for records pretty regularly up until now, it was probably within the last six months or so.
I'm kinda sad, honestly. There was a lot of community history there, and now it's mostly just gone. As far as I know, there was no archive made here on DW. Obviously we've scraped and downloaded about everything there that we wanted, because we're records-hoarding paranoids, but other people probably didn't have a chance to do so.
On the other hand, I guess now our first explorations into plurality via soulbonding are gone, which might be just as well. I didn't have the heart to delete them, even though they were embarrassing and my opinions and such have changed a lot in the ensuing decade plus. (Random factoid: we ended up on Encyclopedia Dramatica from some of that stuff, which is kinda hilarious since what we ended up on ED for was kinda random and silly? Nothing for me to really be ashamed of.)
